Vomar Scraper

Vomar Scraper extracts products from Vomar Voordeelmarkt (https://www.vomar.nl): prices, unit prices, every barcode Vomar lists per product, brand, size, BIO and Beter Leven labels, and Vomar's category tree. A full run reads all 6,325 products in two requests and checks the count against Vomar's own product total. It is a Vomar prijslijst you can download as CSV or Excel, or use as a Vomar product API.

Price: $1.00 per 1,000 products. A full run reads all 6,325 products in about 4 seconds on Apify, with no proxy.

Last full run: 2026-11-05 on Apify, 6,325 products in 4 seconds, 2 requests, both HTTP 200.

Vomar's deals are not in this data: Vomar publishes them only in its PDF folder (see below), so the deal fields are always null.

Who uses the Vomar Scraper?

• Price comparison sites load the full Vomar prijslijst and match it to Albert Heijn, Jumbo, Dirk, PLUS, DekaMarkt and Hoogvliet on barcodes: Vomar lists 13,425 of them, so a product matches on any of its label versions.
• Brand and category managers follow their products' shelf price at Vomar, and its own brands (G'woon 970 products, Vomar 420).
• Retail and market analysts track a regional chain's price level, assortment size and category mix week by week.
• Food and diet apps use Vomar's BIO and Beter Leven labels and its category tree.
• Developers who need a Vomar API without maintaining one call this actor from JavaScript, Python or REST.

How much does the Vomar Scraper cost?

Pay per event. You pay for products written to the dataset and a tiny start fee. Platform usage is included.

Event	Price
Product written to dataset	$0.001
Actor start	$0.00005 per run at the default 512 MB

Vomar Scraper cost examples

Scenario	Products	Cost
Small test, maxItems: 100	100	$0.10
Keyword search, keywords: ["melk"]	166	$0.17
Barcode lookup, 100 barcodes in one run	up to 100	up to $0.10
Full catalog	6,325	$6.33
Full catalog every week, 4 runs a month	25,300	$25.30
Full catalog every day, 30 runs a month	189,750	$189.75

Product counts are from runs on 2026-11-05. Set maxItems to cap any run. Set the run's maximum charge in Apify to cap spend; the actor stops cleanly when it is reached and reports how many products it got.

How do you configure the Vomar Scraper?

Field	Type	Default	Meaning
keywords	array of strings	empty	Search for these words instead of reading the full catalog.
eans	array of strings	empty	Look up these barcodes instead of reading the full catalog.
maxItems	integer	100000	Stop after this many products. The default covers the full catalog.
minItems	integer	1	Fail the run if fewer products were found.

With keywords and eans empty, the actor reads the full catalog.

How do you get the full Vomar assortiment with the Vomar Scraper?

Use it for a complete Vomar product and price list. Leave the input empty. The actor reads Vomar's category tree and every product, two requests in all, and checks that it got as many products as Vomar's own total says.

{}

How do you search Vomar by keyword with the Vomar Scraper?

Use it when you need a product group. One Vomar search runs per keyword and each result is stored once: melk returned 166 products and halfvolle melk 23, all among the 166; bier returned 115. Vomar's search returns its best matches, at most about 200 a keyword, not every match: vomar returned 152 of the 420 products of the Vomar brand. For a whole brand, label or category, run the full catalog and filter it.

{
    "keywords": ["melk", "halfvolle melk"]
}

How do you look up Vomar products by EAN barcode with the Vomar Scraper?

Use it to check the price of products you already know. The actor reads the whole catalog, one request, and matches each barcode against every barcode Vomar lists for a product, primary or additional. Leading zeros are optional. The 3 examples below took 2 seconds on Apify; a barcode not in the catalog gives no item and expected: 0 in the run summary.

{
    "eans": ["8718989029883", "08718734490470", "25004052"]
}

How does the Vomar Scraper report on its run?

Every run saves a SUMMARY record in its key-value store. From the last full run:

{
    "mode": "catalog",
    "itemsPushed": 6325,
    "distinctIds": 6325,
    "productsRead": 6325,
    "catalogTotal": 6325,
    "outsideTree": 0,
    "barcodesMissing": 3,
    "namesMissing": 1,
    "stoppedAtChargeLimit": false,
    "blocked": false,
    "eanCatalogScan": false,
    "durationSec": 4,
    "requests": 2,
    "statusCodes": { "200": 2 },
    "errors": [],
    "retries": [],
    "categories": [{ "id": 50, "name": "Vers", "collected": 1768 }],
    "searches": []
}

Field	Meaning
itemsPushed, distinctIds	Products stored. Only products Apify accepted count.
productsRead	Distinct products read, including those left out by maxItems or your charge limit.
catalogTotal	Vomar's own count of its products.
outsideTree	Products whose group is not in Vomar's category tree; they have no category or address.
barcodesMissing	Products with no barcode of 8 digits or more: 3 beer crates.
namesMissing	Products Vomar lists without a name: 1.
eanCatalogScan	true when barcodes were looked up in the catalog.
categories	Products per department.
searches	In search mode, the products found and collected per keyword or barcode.
stoppedAtChargeLimit	true when the run stopped at your maximum charge.
blocked	true when Vomar refused twice in a row (HTTP 403); the run then fails.
statusCodes, retries, errors	Every HTTP status received, every retry with its reason, and requests that failed after 3 retries.

A full-catalog run is suspect when productsRead is below catalogTotal, when outsideTree is above 0, when blocked is true, or when statusCodes holds anything other than 200. Set minItems to make a bad run fail outright.

Things to know about Vomar data from the Vomar Scraper

• Vomar's deals are not in its product data. Vomar publishes its weekly deals (folder deze week, dagknallers) only as PDF flipbooks with no product data, and its website's product pages show regular prices. So promoPrice, promoText and the other deal fields are always null; for deals, read Vomar's folder.
• Many barcodes per product. Vomar lists additional barcodes for other label versions and older codes, and for fresh produce the barcodes of every grower's pack: 78 on white grapes and on cherry tomatoes. gtins holds all 13,425; barcode lookups match any of them.
• 333 barcodes are in-store codes. Products weighed or packed in store carry codes starting with 2, which match no other chain.
• 3 beer crates have no barcode. Heineken 0% Pils, Grolsch Pils and De Klok Pils crates (24x300ml) carry only a 3-digit Vomar code, so their ean is null. Other crates have a real barcode among their additional ones, which the actor uses.
• One product has no name. Article 241784 (€1.79, barcode 4014400400007) has no name in Vomar's data; it is kept with name: null.
• Vomar gives no unit price. unitPrice is computed from the price and size. Spices reach real unit prices above €1,000 per kg, such as Verstegen Saffraan, 0.05 gram for €1.49; per-piece prices under a cent keep 4 decimals, such as 300 cotton buds for €0.89 at €0.003 a piece.
• Search returns best matches, not every match. Vomar's search gives at most about 200 results a keyword, ranked: vomar returned 152 of the 420 Vomar-brand products, g'woon 180 of 970 G'woon products, biologisch 17 while 291 carry the BIO label. For a whole brand, label or category, filter the full catalog.
• No Nutri-Score, ingredients or stock. Vomar's product data holds none of them.

Is it legal to use the Vomar Scraper?

This actor reads publicly available data only. Vomar product data contains no personal data. It sends one request at a time, two for a full catalog, keeps to Vomar's robots.txt and does not bypass any login or paywall. You are responsible for how you use the data, including any terms that apply to you. See Apify's guide to web scraping legality.

Frequently asked questions about the Vomar Scraper

Can I get the Vomar prijslijst as CSV or Excel?

Yes. Every run's dataset downloads as CSV, Excel, JSON or XML from Apify, or through the API.

How often should I run it?

As often as you need prices: a full run takes about 4 seconds and costs $6.33. Once a week keeps a price list current; once a day catches every price change.

Does it need proxies?

No. Requests go straight to Vomar, one at a time: the last full run got HTTP 200 on both requests from Apify's servers. If Vomar answers 403, the actor pauses 60 seconds and tries once more; a second 403 ends the run with blocked: true.

Can I schedule it and send results somewhere?

Yes. Use Apify Schedules, and a webhook or integration to send each run's dataset to your database, Google Sheets, Slack or Notion.

Does it work with the Apify API and SDK?

Yes. Any Apify client (JavaScript, Python, REST) can start the actor and read the dataset.

Does the Vomar Scraper give Vomar aanbiedingen?

No. Vomar publishes its deals only in its PDF folder, not in its product data, so the actor gives regular prices. The deal fields stay in the output, always null, so datasets combine with the other chains' scrapers.

Is there an official Vomar API?

No public one. Vomar's website reads its products from a gateway that is not documented for outside use. This actor reads it for you and returns a stable set of fields, so you do not maintain the integration.

Can I get Vomar's biologische producten?

Yes. Run the full catalog and filter on organic: true: 291 products carried Vomar's BIO label in the last run, 120 of them in Voorraadkast and 69 in Vers.

Can I get Vomar's bier assortiment?

Yes. Run the full catalog and filter categoryPath on Bier, Wijn & Sterke Drank/Bier: 125 products in the last run, next to 207 wines, ports and sherries and 174 spirits. A keyword search for bier returned 115 of those 125.

Can I compare Vomar prices with Albert Heijn, Jumbo, Dirk, PLUS, DekaMarkt and Hoogvliet?

Yes. The scrapers for those chains by Sleep Mode Systems output the same fields. Match on barcodes (Albert Heijn writes them with a leading zero, so compare without leading zeros), using every code in Vomar's gtins, and compare unitPrice.
